Scientists have invested considerable time in recent years attempting to figure out why egg-grown vaccines seem to lag behind their cell-grown counterparts. Studies have shown that vaccine strains grown in eggs tend to mutate over time.
"Any influenza viruses produced in eggs have to adapt to growing in that environment and hence generate mutations to grow better," said Ian Wilson, DPhil, a professor of structural biology at the Scripps Research Institute, in California, in a press release.
Unfortunately, those adaptations mean the resulting vaccine is optimized to fight the egg-adapted version of influenza, and not necessarily the strain that is active in the area.
Wilson and colleagues published findings documenting the structural underpinnings of this phenomenon in October. Writing in PLOS Pathogens, Wilson and colleagues said the need to move beyond egg-based flu vaccines is urgent.
I'll bet it was. 🚩 cc: @jengleruk
Passaging human viruses in eggs and pushing injections on every man, woman, & child is a bad idea
"SARS-CoV-2" = Decoy in the mRNA platform launch
It wasn't the problem being solved
IMO, the countermeasures weren't for "novel coronavirus" cc: @jjcouey
To my knowledge, the biggest sudden home cardiac arrest event in the past 4 years - if not ever - in the U.S. was in New York City, spring 2020
It makes no sense to me that "15 Days to Slow the Spread" would trigger cardiac arrest deaths of this magnitude & speed.
Per an early study of OHCA in NYC, ambulance crews responded to an astounding number of cardiac arrest calls where the pt was dead on arrival
For those to whom resuscitation was given, an incredible number still died.
What the heck happened here?
(Again, this is SPRING 2020)
I'm working on getting Chicago ambulance cardiac arrest data, but CDC WONDER shows Chicago/Cook Co
had nowhere near the rise in heart-related home deaths that New York City did.
(Chicago announced a "COVID" case 6 wks before NYC.)
On May 24, 2020, at the tail-end of the NYC death event, The New York Times published "An Incalculable Loss" to mark the alleged "coronavirus" deaths of nearly 100,000 Americans.
The dramatic, visually-arresting feature was compiled from obituaries, news articles and paid death notices that appeared in newspapers & digital media "over the past few months."
The print edition listed a (very calculable) 1,000 names total, between the front page & pages 12-14.
2/🧵
The introduction to the list was solemn & reverent, as though a massive but necessary battle had just been fought at a high cost. (Civil War Era lists of the dead come to mind...)
The task of "finding" the dead was couched as laborious, with NYT staff "scouring" sources for "deaths attributed to the virus."
This May 12, 2020 photo from the front page of the NYT shows an ambulance crew wearing "gas masks". 🤔
▪️Can any NYC/metro EMT or CFR verify having to wear these?
▪️Can anyone identify the specific type/make of these masks and when they would typically be worn?
In contrast to the government narrative - and popular belief - New York City ambulance data show people were NOT avoiding healthcare and were calling 9-1-1- for medical help.
Oddly, dispatches rose AFTER the Feds said "15 Days to Slow the Spread."
🧵
Meanwhile, in Chicago, calls to EMS did NOT spike - they dropped a bit and stayed within a "normal" range.
Are we to believe that New Yorkers are THAT much more intense than Chicagoans -- and that Trump's announcement had a differential impact?
🤔
I was living in Cook County at the time, in south Evanston - mere blocks from the Chicago border.
Tension was high.
I've also spent a good amount of time in NYC (for work and on personal trips).
This difference doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
SUDDEN SPREAD OF MASS TESTING, NOT SUDDEN SPREAD OF CORONAVIRUS (via @PanData19)
In PANDA’s view, the notion that something then spread during the “pandemic phase” was not driven by person-to-person pathogenic spread but by an extremely rapid ramp-up of PCR testing finding increasing numbers of “positive cases”.
Retrospective analyses of blood (and other) samples collected months before the Covid era consistently found evidence of “the virus” across a wide geographical area. Startlingly, such spread occurred without any reported clusters of unusual illnesses or excess deaths – these only started upon the institution of the response to the assumption that something novel was circulating.
PANDA believes that the rapid rollout of inappropriate, non-specific and oversensitive PCR testing created the illusion that something novel was spreading, whereas in fact all that was truly spreading was the testing itself. In many cases the testing was finding other known or unknown viruses, including those associated with normal seasonal coronavirus waves, whole or fragmented, infectious or not.
As these positive cases were found, a number of perverse incentives created a positive feedback loop, involving more and more testing (especially of “contacts”) being carried out, more “cases” being identified, more testing being demanded, more “cases” being found and so on.
PANDA believes that this conflation of spread of what can be regarded as a mere bystander signal with the spread of a dangerous disease lies at the heart of key conceptual differences between individuals and groups who otherwise share a passion for fundamental human rights and freedom from medical tyranny.
PANDA contends that the harms to health we have witnessed are iatrogenic in nature and/or consequences of the response to the detection of that novel signal, and absent its detection, nothing unusual would have been noticed.
While we accept that front-line clinicians perceived the presence of a deadly and novel disease, this does not account for what would have been observed had people’s interaction with healthcare not been changed so dramatically and augmented by the relentless campaign of fear waged by governments. It is to be emphasised that the putative causative agent had spread widely across several areas without causing such effects well before the “emergency” was declared.
